FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

For this application we recommend the BRESSER Erudit DLX 40-1000x microscope in combination with a USB camera, e.g. the BRESSER MikroCam 1.3 MP. This solution offers better image quality and flexibility than a simple LCD microscope.

If you want to identify bacteria, it is usually more useful to create a culture. Microscopes are generally only sufficient to determine whether the bacteria are, for example, spherical or rod-shaped.
The Barlow lens is already installed in the eyepiece tube on many devices. It can be pulled out at the upper ridge to use the zoom function.
Possible causes:
 
  • Sample too thick / unsuitable: Use thin samples or fixed smears.
  • No cover glass or incorrect thickness: Objectives are optimized for cover glasses.
  • Condenser incorrectly adjusted: Do not open the diaphragm too far – otherwise contrast will be low.
  • Magnification too high: Rule of thumb: maximum 1000 × objective aperture. Example: With a 40x objective with aperture 0.65, the limit is about 650x.

BRESSER MikroCam II 20 MP 1'' Microscope Camera
The BRESSER MikroCam II 20 MP 1’’ microscope camera is the professional solution when it comes to microscope imaging. This camera has a big 1’’ sensor (image area 13.06 x 8.8 mm); this is the biggest sensor of the MikroCam camera range. With this camera it is possible to document roughly the same field of view as it can be seen through the eyepiece (e.g. when using a 10x / 22mm). Other models will cover only 50% or less of the eyepiece field of view. The Sony IMX183 CMOS-sensor is very sensitive and has extremely low image noise, which makes this camera especially suitable for contrast methods like dark field or phase contrast. The MikroCam Lab II software comes with a wide range of professional functions, e.g. measurements in live view (calibration slide needed), mosaic, Focus-Stacking (for improved depth of field). All automatic functions (exposure time, gain, white balance etc) can be adjusted manually as well. Due to the big sensor size the camera will not work with all microscope models. It might be possible that the optics will not illuminate the full sensor, so you experience vignetting. Usually this can be resolved by using the optional 1x optical adapter (item no. 5914001). Please note that this camera model is not suitable for the stereo microscope BRESSER Science ETD-201. It will cover only a small field of view.

BRESSER Microscope Photo Adapter 30.5mm / C-Mount
The BRESSER Photo Adapter 30.5 mm / C-Mount is designed to establish a connection between the 0.5x Reducing lens (Art.-No. 5914005) and the C-Mount MikroCam Adapter (Art.-No. 5942101). Thus a larger image field as well as a higher light intensity can be achieved with a MikroCam.

BRESSER Set Microscope Slides
Slides and cover glasses are an indispensable accessory which has also impact on the image quality. For most biological microscopes, the cover glass thickness is an important optical parameter, which is therefore included in the optical design and, if so, printed on the sleeve of every objective. You can usually see the number 0.17 which is the thickness in millimeters. For demanding applications in the laboratory, or for microphotography, using cover glasses with the desired thickness and high quality is necessary.The cover glasses included in the set are made of Boro 3.3 glass and are standardized to a thickness of 0.16-0.19mm. So they match the desired 0.17mm really good and give the best possible image quality. These Boro 3.3 cover glasses are pure white, without streaks and are pre-cleaned and ready to use. They are also especially suitable for fluorescence microscopy.The slides are made of soda lime glass, and have ground edges for safe handling. They have a matte field for writing on both sides (top and bottom). Slides and cover glasses are packed separately and in a vacuum sealed bag, containing moisture absorbent. They can be stored for a long time without loss of quality from hydrolysis and are easy to take out.

BRESSER Science MTL 201 50-800x Microscope
The BRESSER Science MTL 201 is a special reflected light microscope, which allows to observe non-transparent surfaces at higher magnifications (50x-800x). This solid designed instrument is ideal for working in metallography (e. g. microscopy of polished samples of metals or alloys), mineralogy, precision engineering and electronics. It is suitable for scientific research, teaching demonstration and industrial production (e.g. quality controlling). According to its purposes, the MTL 201 is equipped with a large stage (250 mm x 230 mm), which can be moved coarsely by a quick adjustment lever and finely by a transverse and a longitudinal knob. The focuser has coarse and fine drive (coaxial; circa 70 µm/ full turn). The illumination is done by a halogen lamp (20 W) with a dimmer. The light comes through the objective from above onto the sample. There are a field diaphragm, which can be centered, some filters (yellow, green, blue, ground glass) and a polarizer/analyzer combination. The fivefold nosepiece is equipped with planachromatic DIN objectives (5x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 80x). The trinocular head bears two 30° inclined ocular tubes and the photo tube. The oculars (with 10x wide field lenses) have diopter and eye relief adjustments. The photo tube allows for digital imaging, e. g. with an optional available PC eyepiece. Further optional accessories: Eyepiece (WF16x), dividing eyepiece (WF10x), planachromatic objective (50x).
